Manju drew a line and followed all steps to construct a line parallel to it through . However, she made a mistake during the construction. The figure she constructed is given below.
Her friend checked the work made the statement: "With radius equal to and as the centre the cut an arc on . Then join point D and the point of intersection of with the arc, to get the line parallel to "
Her friend mentioned the reason: "To make lines parallel, the alternate interior angles must be made equal"
